Vox Populi, Vox Dei Poem by Ramona Thompson

Vox populi, vox dei
The voice of God is the voice of the people
Ha!
Yeah right!
So not true
So much a lie
God is not the people
God is not the con artists, fools and sinners that walk so hearty amoug us
Pretending to a higher rank then they deserve
Calling on the name of the holy one as their new favorite toy
To lie, cheat and steal
To pull the wool over the eyes of the unsuspecting
They use the bible
Turning its precious pages of cool wisdom into a wicked playground
A brand new Satan's Eden
Where someday only the cruel will rule
Heartless and cold and mean
Laughing as they point and shout
To the slaughtered innocents below
Vox populi, vox dei
The voice of the people is the voice of God
How foolish you idiot morals were to believe that one!
